What program are you saving it with when you create it? there are problems with AseeDsee for some reason.

Load the picture in another gfx program and save it from there, should work.

Amiga.org seems to have a few problems uploading images of any sort.

I have 3 browsers on a Mac and it will not accept data from any of them (Safari, Camino, IE).

I usually have to resort to the indignity of uploading with IE on Windows (which is dial up only).

I have a heap of interesting* images to upload but I'm not going to do them via dial up.

*Ever seen inside the Walker???

-edit-
I've had problems before too, but it seems that
as long as it's within the limits and a jpeg
file (with the .jpg extension) it'll work. I've
even gotten it to work with Mac browsers and
Ibrowse (on occasion:)) but if all else fails
use a PC with IE, although you really shouldn't
have too.

Firewalls sometime block outgoing information aswell ... I use zonealarm wich blocks stuff sometimes ... try submitting it with your firewall off ..

Not it hasn't, it must be your brower's cache. refresh it.

Naah don't, I'm an airhead at least 3 times a day, and this doesn't qualify for even one;-)

Just a small question about avatars.
The Image Size Limit is 16k.
If the avatar is an animgif, is this the limit for the whole file, or just each frame thereof?

Cheers,

Thanks, that was the problem here.

Was able to upload a load of A1K pics :-)

The whole file.
